An introduction

Hello to Stella Avrie my third great-grandchild. Her two big brothers are happy to have her and Mommie home after a few days in a Boston hosptial where Stella arrived nearly a month early although she weight 7 pounds 11 ounces.  Mother Cori is well and very happy to be home again-- the more so because she and her husband only moved into their new (first) house on New Year's Day -- a very memorable January in the family's life.

I was enchanted with Stella and especially with her long, elegant fingers.  I'm convinced she'll be a pianist -- her mother and father both are very musical people.  Big brother Finn was showing his own musical talent with a spoon drumming on the coffee table, while middle brother, Cole, has learned to walk holding onto objects and makes very sure he's in the middle of all goings on.  Oh, I should mention that Cori is a talented photographer so the boys and their sister are going to have well documented lives.

Does that woman look old enough to have three great-grandchildren?
